# shape_pie
Returns shape points and triangle indexes of a pie (circular sector) shape. They can be used with xxx_extrude modules of dotSCAD. The shape points can be also used with the built-in polygon module.
## Parameters
- `radius` : The radius of the circle.
- `angles` : A 2 element vector which defines the central angle. The first element of the vector is the beginning angle in degrees, and the second element is the ending angle.
- `$fa`, `$fs`, `$fn` : Check [the circle module](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Using_the_2D_Subsystem#circle) for more details.
## Examples
include <shape_pie.scad>;
shape_pts_tris = shape_pie(10, [45, 315], $fn = 24);
